The bookstore for books made with AI

Every book says who made it.

AIBOOKS sells books made by people working with AI. Each one carries the Making Label: what the person did, what the AI did, and how it was checked.

Books written entirely by people have good homes at other bookstores. This shelf is for the new kind, labeled honestly.

The trust

The Making Label

Read the standard →

Every book on this shelf answers four questions before you buy it: what the person did, what the AI did, which tools were used, and how the book was checked. The four steps below show how much of the writing the AI drafted.

Gold Seal

Human-written · AI-assisted

A person wrote the words. AI helped research, edit or check.

Silver Seal

Co-written

A person and an AI each drafted large parts of the book.

Bronze Seal

AI-drafted · human-directed

AI drafted most of the words. A person set the idea, directed every part, and chose and edited it.

Copper Seal

AI-made · human-curated

AI drafted nearly everything. A person chose it, checked it and stands behind it.

Every book wears its seal on the cover as a chip in its metal, and carries a numbered Certificate of Making inside. Gold is the most human hand; copper, the metal that carries the current, is the most AI. Every certificate is listed in the public register, where anyone can check it or challenge it. AIBOOKS issues these seals itself: they are the store's own, not an independent certification. If a label is wrong, your money comes back.

Ask the bookseller

Tell us what you need. We'll find the book.

Say it the way you'd say it to a person at the counter. The bookseller reads every book on this shelf, and only this shelf.

Your answer appears here: a few books from this shelf, best fit first.

Tap the library to dock and walk in: every book on the shelf is inside. Two harbors, one library. Alexandria copied every book that came in on the ships. San Francisco Bay is where the new ships come in, carrying the first books made with AI. AIBOOKS stands between them: the colonnade and the fog, the old lighthouse and the bridge.

Why buy here

A better bookstore, because it was built for these books

Every book is labeled

The Making Label says what the person did, what the AI did, which tools were used and how the book was checked. Most bookstores never show readers this.

Read the first chapter free

Every book opens its first pages to you before you pay. Decide with the real text in front of you.

Living editions

AI-made books improve. When the author ships a new edition, your copy updates for free, for good.

Read anywhere, no locks

Read in your browser, or save an EPUB for Apple Books, Kobo or Send to Kindle, or print a PDF. No DRM.

A person reads every book

Nothing reaches the shelf until a person has read it and checked its label.

Authors keep their rights

Authors sell here without giving up their copyright, and the author is named on every book.

For authors

Made a book with AI? Sell it where that is the point.

Other bookstores hide AI books or turn them away. Here you put your name on the label, say what you did and what the AI did, and readers buy with their eyes open.

  • You keep your copyright.
  • You receive 61.8% of every sale (proposed, under review).
  • Every book carries your Making Label.
  • Nothing goes on the shelf until a person reads it.
